I havent been getting any market data on Jan 13 from 9PM to 6PM Pacific Time. Again, I dont have any data at 9PM. I talked to the guys at IB on...
I guess you get what you pay for. Besides having crappy software, no customer support and lack of historical data, IB cant be beat. Im gonna...
The question is: why is my profit left over in Yen in the first place? The reality is that IB charges commissions for trading USDJPY,...

It has been driving me crazy and when I fall asleep there is a burst of fast motion. That's why I am trying to get Ninjatrader to do my...
25000. I just called IB and anything under 30,000 automatically goes to IDEAL. So now I have to blow away bigger money to test my software.
